They put gall in my food and gave me vinegar for my thirst.Psalms69:21

For they persecute those you wound and talk about the pain of those you hurt.Psalms69:26

I am an object of scorn to my accusers; when they see me, they shake their heads.Psalms109:25

I offered my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.Isaiah50:6

Just as there were many who were appalled at him , his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred beyond human likeness,Isaiah52:14

Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.By oppression and judgment he was taken away. And who can speak of his descendants? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was stricken.He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.Yet it was the LORD's will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the LORD makes his life a guilt offering, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the LORD will prosper in his hand.After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light of life and be satisfied ; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities.Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.Isaiah53:4-12

"Seventy 'sevens' are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy.Daniel9:24

After the sixty-two 'sevens,' the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.Daniel9:26

As for you, because of the blood of my covenant with you, I will free your prisoners from the waterless pit.Zechariah9:11

On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem. Mourning for the One They Pierced"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.Zechariah12:9-10

"On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.Zechariah13:1

If someone asks him, 'What are these wounds on your body ?' he will answer, 'The wounds I was given at the house of my friends.' The Shepherd Struck, the Sheep Scattered"Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!" declares the LORD Almighty. "Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.Zechariah13:6-7

For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.Matthew12:40

A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." Jesus then left them and went away.The Yeast of the Pharisees and SadduceesMatthew16:4

From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.Matthew16:21

But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands."Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist.The Healing of a Boy With a DemonMatthew17:12-13

When they came together in Galilee, he said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men.They will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised to life." And the disciples were filled with grief.The Temple TaxMatthew17:22-23

Now as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside and said to them,"We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to deathand will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!"A Mother's RequestMatthew20:17-19

just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."Two Blind Men Receive SightMatthew20:28

"Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and went away on a journey.When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his fruit."The tenants seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time, and the tenants treated them the same way.Last of all, he sent his son to them. 'They will respect my son,' he said."But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him and take his inheritance.'So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.Matthew21:33-39

"As you know, the Passover is two days away,and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified."Matthew26:2

He replied, "Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 'The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.' "Matthew26:18

The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born."Matthew26:24

This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.Matthew26:28

Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."Matthew26:39

He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done."Matthew26:42

Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels?But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?"Matthew26:53-54

He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again.Mark8:31

because he was teaching his disciples. He said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise."Mark9:31

"We are going up to Jerusalem," he said, "and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles,who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise."The Request of James and JohnMark10:33-34

Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: "This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against,Luke2:34

And he said, "The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life."Luke9:22

"Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men."Luke9:44

As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.Luke9:51

But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is completed!Luke12:50

But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.Luke17:25

And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.Luke22:15

And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me."In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.Luke22:19-20

It is written: 'And he was numbered with the transgressors' ; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment."Luke22:37

"Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done."Luke22:42

Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?"Luke24:26

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!John1:29

Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life."For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.John3:14-17

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."John6:51

"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.John10:11

just as the Father knows me and I know the Father,and I lay down my life for the sheep.John10:15

The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life,only to take it up again.No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."John10:17-18

Then one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, spoke up, "You know nothing at all!You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish."He did not say this on his own, but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the Jewish nation,and not only for that nation but also for the scattered children of God, to bring them together and make them one.John11:49-52

"Leave her alone," Jesus replied. " It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial.John12:7

I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.John12:24

Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself."He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.The crowd spoke up, "We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever, so how can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this 'Son of Man'?"John12:31-34

"I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture: 'He who shares my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'"I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am He.John13:18-19

After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, "I tell you the truth, one of you is going to betray me."John13:21

Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.John14:19

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.John15:13

I tell you the truth, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.John16:20

"I told you that I am he," Jesus answered. "If you are looking for me, then let these men go."John18:8

Jesus commanded Peter, "Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?"Jesus Taken to AnnasJohn18:11

Jesus answered, "You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin."John19:11

The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead,whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree.God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior that he might give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.Acts5:30-31

Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.Acts20:28

But I have had God's help to this very day, and so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen,that the Christ would suffer and, as the first to rise from the dead, would proclaim light to his own people and to the Gentiles."Acts26:22-23

and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished,Romans3:24-25

He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.Romans4:25

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.Death Through Adam, Life Through ChristRomans5:6-11

Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection.Romans6:3-5

For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.Romans6:9-10

For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man,Romans8:3

He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all,how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?Romans8:32

Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died,more than that, who was raised to life,is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.Romans8:34

neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.Romans8:39

For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.Romans14:9

If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died.Romans14:15

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel,not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.Christ the Wisdom and Power of GodFor the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.1 Corinthians1:17-18

but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.1 Corinthians1:23-24

For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.1 Corinthians2:2

Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast,as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.1 Corinthians5:7

you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.1 Corinthians6:20

So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge.1 Corinthians8:11

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,1 Corinthians15:3-4

We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body.2 Corinthians4:10-11

For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.2 Corinthians5:14-15

that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.2 Corinthians5:19

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.2 Corinthians5:21

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.2 Corinthians8:9

who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,Galatians1:4

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.Galatians2:20

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree."Galatians3:13

But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law,to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons.Galatians4:4-5

to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's graceEphesians1:6-7

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace,and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.Ephesians2:13-16

and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.Ephesians5:2

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for herto make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.Ephesians5:25-27

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death, even death on a cross!Philippians2:8

in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.The Supremacy of ChristHe is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.Colossians1:14-15

and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead,Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.1 Thessalonians1:10

We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.1 Thessalonians4:14

For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.1 Thessalonians5:9-10

who gave himself as a ransom for all men,the testimony given in its proper time.1 Timothy2:6

who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.Titus2:14

The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.Hebrews1:3

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.Hebrews2:9-10

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death,that is, the devil,and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.Hebrews2:14-15

Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.Hebrews2:18

Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself.Hebrews7:27

He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean.How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance,now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it,because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living.Hebrews9:12-17

Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.Hebrews9:25-26

so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.Hebrews9:28

And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.Hebrews10:10

But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God.Hebrews10:12

because by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.Hebrews10:14

Then he adds: "Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more."And where these have been forgiven, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin.Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body,Hebrews10:17-20

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.Hebrews12:2

to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.Hebrews12:24

The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.Hebrews13:11-12

who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance.Praise to God for a Living Hope1 Peter1:2

For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers,but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.1 Peter1:18-21

To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.1 Peter2:21

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.1 Peter2:24

For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit,1 Peter3:18

Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because he who has suffered in his body is done with sin.1 Peter4:1

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.1 John1:7

He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.1 John2:2

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.1 John3:16

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.1 John4:10

and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.Revelation1:5

And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.Revelation5:9

In a loud voice they sang: "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"Revelation5:12
